If we're going to use it to make our own game, how much will it matter if the single player campaign sucks?
If you mean the controls and graphics and such, I'll probably mention those very loudly if I dislike them.

Oh, jolly.
I just got an idea anyway.

The Great Tree and growing is a very important theme in D'ni. It ties in with the original religion of the D'ni, but has also sort of developed into a cult of its own.

And seeds go with trees/plants and growing, of course.

Ah well, not exactly a concrete idea for a name, but a direction anyway.

No ideas on names...  *looks desperate*
because frankly, I'm not getting any... good ones anyway.

I belonged to several neighbourhoods (before finding one that fitted right) in the old prologue, all of which will be around again for the second try, and I was still unsure as to whether I wanted to go back to those, or make a new one.
Kind of depended on everyone else here of course, but seeing as you all seem to be up for it, a new one it is.

Neighbourhoods don't really have a leader like guilds usually do, but (at least in old Live) there is one person who has to set up the initial 'hood (actual place, that is). Anyone can 'invite' others after that. It's more like setting their linking book to link to their new home, than inviting.

Oh yeah, let's go out and bring structure and order to the online RP community! :shock:

But I think that most other RP communities are indeed focused on just the one game all their members are playing. Haven't yet found any that span a lot of games, anyway.

So, in URU there are these things called Neighbourhoods, which are a little bit like guilds in other games (though not quite).
Anyway, you can make your own and name it.

For those of you who are going to give URU a try, would you like for us to make our own neighbourhood in URU, like they're planning to make our own guild in Ryzom, or would you prefer to join existing, possibly well-known ones?

And if you would like to make our own, are there any ideas on what we should call it? It would be an IC name, of course...

Yes, yes, it's a 'where are you from' poll.
I just like polls.

Not too sure about the options, but if I missed one just reply and name it smile.
Feel free to reply anyhow.

No mechanics to represent it in-game, of course, but then, no characters are old enough for that to be needed.

Actually, if I remember Ryzom well, some chars look older than others. If you zoomed in you could see some of the NPCs having wrinkly faces. I'm not sure if that would automatically start showing up on player chars though.

Thing is, trailers looking quite a bit like what they showed have been around for years too.
Don't get your hopes up, at least.

No, it's not. Been in development for years, and no word yet of even a closed beta. I think it'll be a year or two more at the very least.

I've been waiting for that one for a while now. Over a year, maybe two.
It's slow, but it looks like it would be good.

As for RP, the RP possibilities:
at the worst they can't be any worse than those in any other non-RP oriented combat MMO, and at the best, well, they might be better.
Though I don't expect this game to cater to Rpers like Seed did, and URU promises to do.
The way they introduce all the different peoples, that's good, though. It's IC, for one.
I like the strong definitions that go with each different group.

At the above links you can download the D'ni font. If I ever want to write something in actual D'ni, not just transliterated, you'll need it to be able to read it.

I'm willing to help in any way I can, I'm just not sure if I'm any good at any of these things.

The problem I find with most MMOGs is that if you do find RP in them, you are usually limited to doing things that have no impact on the world. So, while I like social RP as much as story RP, I have to have both these days

Which is why I wait for URU Live  big_smile
